LAUSANNE, Switzerland — Real Madrid has at least earned one trophy this season and become a European champion again on Monday. Madrid won the UEFA Youth League final — effectively the Champions League for under-19 teams — by beating Club Brugge in a penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw on a sun-splashed evening in Switzerland.

Ibrahima Konaté’s future has been one of the longest-running storylines at Liverpool this season. With his contract expiring in June 2026, he emerged as a target for Real Madrid as a potential free transfer reinforcement. However, the Frenchman now appears to be moving away from the Spanish side. Instead, the 26-year-old center-back has acknowledged that

It was probably Arsenal’s best performance in two months, but that will be scant consolation. Manchester City’s win on Sunday leaves Pep Guardiola’s side in control of the title race; they will go top of the Premier League on goal difference if they beat Burnley at Turf Moor on Wednesday. Both sides will then have

Italy international Marco Palestra has not ruled out a potential move to Inter during the upcoming transfer window, but insists that for now, his entire focus is on helping Cagliari achieve Serie A survival: ‘We’ll see in the summer’.

What a weekend of European soccer! In the English Premier League, Manchester City beat Arsenal 2-1 to take control of the title race with just over a month to go; will we look back on Sunday’s game as the turning point?

The word “infamous” in this article’s title keeps this off top spot. By all means, Arsenal’s failure to win the Premier League title in 2023 is the worst example of blowing a title race. Mikel Arteta’s Gunners were top of the table for 248 days, the most of any side to then go on and
